The first time that I had ever played Second Life was a couple of years ago for another class. At first, I was having a lot of fun creating my avatar. Afterwards, I went exploring. I quickly got bored with this because most of the people I had encountered were foreign and not very good with English, not that I could speak their languages anyhow.
From there, I began a disheartening search for shoes since mine were just not working with the outfit as a whole. I then quickly figured out that you need money to buy stuff and the $10 that the game sets you up with just doesn't cut it. I was going to need more than $10 for what I wanted.
I decided to get a job. Unfortunately, looking for one wasn't easy. I tried asking others for advice but, like I said, most of those I met were not English speakers. Eventually, I met a person who said that they wanted to help me. He asked me to come to his house, and I did. Long story short, I felt unconfortable (yes, even as an avatar) and ditched him as fast as I could. After that experience, I didn't go back until recently.
